Monday finish in store for the Memorial Tournament

I predict the Muirfield curse will result in another Monday finish for the Memorial Tournament. The latest weather forecast calls for severe weather overnight and an 80% chance of rain on Saturday. Isn’t their some rumor that Indian burial mounds were moved or dug up to create the golf course? It is called Shawnee Hills afterall. I’ll do a little more research into that issue and let you know what I dig up.

That was easy –

Dublin – Muirfield Village Golf Club – 1976 – Was the start of the Memorial Tournament Jack Nicklaus – built the golf course on an Indian burial or sacred grounds. The legend has it – Chief Leatherlips makes it rain every year on Tournament. In 24 years it has been affected by rain 14 times. Twice it has been shortened to 54 holes. One year they move the tournament a week a head. It still rained.

What did Jack do with the Indian remains, if any?
